Loss of Appetite
Hello Doctors, I am a 22 year old male having height of 5'11" and weight somewhere around 58-60. I am an IT Professional and working in night shift since last one year. From couple of months i do not feel hungry at all and taking meal only once a day while i eat eggs and drink milk some times. I took ayurvedic medicine (Sanyasi Ayurveda) for weight gain around 2 years ago and also gained weight for that time with a good increase in appetite but after leaving the medication my weight decreased and i also lost my appetite. Please advice some thing because i really need to gain some weight as i look really thin as per my height. Thanks.
